Yearning for a man who shares in her appreciation of the arts but resigning herself to a life of spinsterhood, Miss Antonia Lockes is befuddled by the attentions of Patrick Fairchild, Duke of Exton, a painter who sees her as his muse. Original.

Antonia Locke, with a figure like a Botticelli angel, is just the woman Patrick Fairchild, Duke of Exton, needs to complete his Renaissance-style painting. However, getting this naive schoolmaster's daughter to agree to pose as his unclad Venus is another matterAuntil he thinks of marriage. A persistent, rakehell hero with a passion for art and a forthright, practical heroine with a passion for music end up developing a passion for each other in this well-written, gently paced Regency that provides insight into the social mores of the period. Charming language, well-handled sexual tension, and a truly obnoxious drunken lord add interest. Ferguson (The Smithfield Bargain, Kensington, 1994) lives in West Chester, PA.
